Ontogeny of Myeloid Cells
Granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells (DCs) represent a subgroup of leukocytes, collectively called myeloid cells. During the embryonic development of mammalians, myelopoiesis occurs in a stepwise fashion that begins in the yolk sac and ends up in the bone marrow (BM). During this process, these early monocyte progenitors colonize various organs such as the brain, liver, ski...
متن کاملThe Role of Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells in Immune Ontogeny
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a heterogeneous population of granulocytic or monocytic cells that suppress innate as well as adaptive immune responses. In healthy adults, immature myeloid cells differentiate into macrophages, dendritic cells, and granulocytes in the bone marrow and MDSC are rarely detected in peripheral blood. However, in certain pathologies, in particular malignan...
متن کاملOntogeny of thymic NK1.1+ cells.
Thymic NK1.1+ cells are a recently described lymphocyte subset whose biologic function is not well defined. There is some controversy as to whether thymic NK1.1+ cells mature in a thymic or an extrathymic pathway. In this study, we examined the ontogeny of murine thymic NK1.1+ cells utilizing direct examination of freshly obtained fetal thymi as well as fetal thymi established in organ cultures...
متن کاملAcute myeloid leukemia ontogeny is defined by distinct somatic mutations.
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) can develop after an antecedent myeloid malignancy (secondary AML [s-AML]), after leukemogenic therapy (therapy-related AML [t-AML]), or without an identifiable prodrome or known exposure (de novo AML). The genetic basis of these distinct pathways of AML development has not been determined. We performed targeted mutational analysis of 194 patients with rigorously de...
متن کاملOntogeny and homeostasis of Langerhans cells.
Langerhans cells (LCs) refer to the dendritic cells (DCs) that populate the epidermis. Strategically located at one of the body's largest interfaces with the external environment, they form the first line of defense against pathogens that breach the skin. Although LCs share several phenotypical and functional features with lymphoid and non-lymphoid organ DCs, they also have unique properties th...
